A Thousand Times and Your Sisters Too - A Thousand Times, a Girl Like You

This is my sister.
My baby sister that I've just been given the blessing of knowing in recent years.

She came to visit earlier in the summer and stayed with me.

The funny thing about the two of us is...we're both, essentially, only children.
But we want to be sisters...always wanted to have a sister.
Now we do...

Miriam gets it.
She's a tight lady friend and she has a sister...
She's a blast too - so, I drug her along on a sisterly adventure.

We brunched at Parallel 17 and flirted with the adorable waiter...

Borrowed a bike from the Denver Bike Share...
And by borrowed, I mean my sister ALMOST paid $130 to have one of these things.

Totally not worth it, but that's a discussion for another day!

Our bike ride took us down Broadway to Barry's on Broadway where they have a new skeeball game!

Miriam kicked our asses repeatedly!



Cute!

Yes. They DO give you a free shot when you get over 30,000 points!

I was on a mission.

We tore up the place...

We're sisters!

Later, we headed over to Governor's Park for some food and camaraderie!
LeVar joined us...
He's a dreamboat.

I told ya...

And spirit animal forever, Tim was there too!

Even good old Marcelo showed up!

And Dustin with his awesome t-shirt that I covet.

We snacked...

laughed...

and just generally looked good.
HOW WE DO.

Told ya.

And I realized something...
I love my people and when I'm surrounded by them I feel safe and comfortable.
What better an environment to introduce my sister!

When all the people you love are in one place...it makes it hard to imagine being anywhere else.

And I'm lucky as hell.
Lucky times a bazillion.
For all of it.

Let's Be Friends



So, the sweet, gorgeous people over at Talk Thirty to Me did me the distinct honor of posting a little article I did on female friendships.

And by the sweet, gorgeous people, I mean LeVar and Sara!
They both maintain blogs, respectively, that are a joy to read...giving you insight into the their worlds and how truly brilliant and special they are!

Check out Straighten My Tie and Meanest Look and support them and their efforts!
DO IT BECAUSE I SAID SO.

Do it because knowing that there are smart and sincere people working as hard as you are to eek out as happy a life as possible in this world is a comfort and pleasure!

AND READ MY ARTICLE! I'm cute and smart, for heaven's sake!
